I don't necessarily agree, but I don't know whether she going to lose. Let me let me tell you something, though. Mhm. What I was about to say, oh damn, it was on my mind when she was talking. >> Yeah. It was something. But, hold hold let me say this. There is a place called Normal. Yeah. It's in Illinois. Uh is that where they are? Did they say anything about >> I think I think so. Yeah. But I it is it's a Normal. I That was weird. I never seen no place called Normal. >> Neither. That's just like Virginia. >> one thing though. What's that? That there are normal police in the world. >> I know, right? >> [laughter] >> I know, right? Yeah. No, I'm just kidding. That's just like all the Virginia. Yeah, yeah. >> And and you know what's so crazy about all Virginia? The Whittakers live there. They are. They and they they I think they're named that that because >> Of the Whittakers? >> of all those people like that. >> You think it's cuz of the Whittakers? Not just them. >> Just like the whole family? >> part of Virginia is is very suspect. That's all I'm saying. Yeah, I know what you're saying. >> Yeah. Yeah, that Well, I didn't know there was a Normal. Mhm. But but Let me say this though. You know what I'm going to say. Let me let me let me say this first though. Let me say this. >> It's It's I said it in another video one time. The cops don't trust us and we don't trust them. Mhm. So it's like a back and forth thing with black people and cops and cops and black people. >> Mhm. So in my mind it's like when they doing their job, we don't trust them to do their job and they don't trust us uh with how we going to act Mhm. and stuff and erratic and stuff like that and then you know all that stuff. It's like we got to we got to come to a common ground with each other. You get what I'm saying? To learn to just trust each other. That's Do you do you get what I'm saying? Yeah, I get what you're saying. Like we automatically She just said, "You're doing this cuz I'm a black woman." You're doing this cuz I'm a black >> [laughter] >> Don't go cry wolf so much until when something really racist happens, Yes. the courts ain't going to believe you. Right. You know what I'm saying? They telling [clears throat] you "Hey, we need to get your phone. The fire is going to be investigated." They told you 15 times that this thing will be investigated. "We need your phone." We love our phones so much that we are scared to just give them up. Mhm. Because let's be honest, we probably have a Some people have things in their phones they don't want you to see. Some girls like to take pictures and be on OnlyFans, nudies and stuff like that, and talking to dudes and guys, and they don't want you to see their text messages. So, they're so scared >> Mhm. that you're going to see all that stuff and read it until they're like, "Oh, no. Don't I don't want you to see my phone." I get it. >> Mhm. Nobody That's privacy. You don't want nobody knowing your stuff. >> Right. So, I get it. But, if they're telling you, "Hey, this phone is confiscated. I I need to confiscate it for investigation." That's all you had to do. Was that Was that simple? Yeah, I I think it was pretty simple. >> It It was simple then she started just going off. And and then and then she said the black cop said She said, "You lied to me." I'll never forget what I heard a cop say in one of the videos. He says He said, "We, by federal law, are can lie to you Mhm. to prove a point in our investigation" or something like that. >> Mhm. Cops can lie to you. Mhm. Y'all learn to be on TikTok and learn these laws. Y'all need to learn that they can lie to you to get what they need done for the investigation. So, you didn't You didn't know that, Miss Thang. >> [laughter] >> You didn't know You didn't read that part of it. So, of course they are lying to you to do what they need to do. You can't lie to them, which I feel is unfair. Yeah. But, it is what it is. You cannot lie to them. I mean, they can lie to you to get what they need done. Mhm. But, I just >> feel like this was like extra and all you had to do was just listen and here's that word that people don't like, comply. I guess I'm a punk. I I just I I'm never My mind is like, if you ain't doing nothing to hurt me and you just come to do your job, I'm like, yes, sir. All right, do what I need to do. Let me go ahead and just do the invest- let's do our talking. Mhm. If I got to be arrested, okay. Do you know how stuff can can fall in your favor but just being simple? Right. The cops say, you know, he was he was respectful. He let us do what I needed to do. Let's drop those charges. Simple as that. >> Exactly. You don't want to comply. Mhm. You know what I'm saying? I'm a I'm a complier. I'm sorry. Unless I feel like something ain't right. And if ain't something ain't right, I'm going to fight it in the court. I'm saying, no, okay, you go ahead and do your arrest. Later, like she did, I'll come back and do the sue thing later. Mhm. I won't fight the cops. I'm like, come on, do what you got to do. What do you want to add to it? Um in the beginning, I think she was looking for she as the uh young girl. Mhm. She was looking for a particular word or verbage to be used >> Mhm. as to why her phone was being confiscated. Mhm. Police are so um calculated >> Mhm. and strategic. They know not to say certain words to get her down to the place because they know they were going to confiscate her phone. That's why they didn't want to use certain phrases. That's why she said, "But you're not telling me why." Cuz the woman used the exact same phrase over and over instead of saying, "We think you had something to do with it. >> Yep. That's why your phone is being confiscated." >> Right. She did not say those things. Mhm. Because you can't give information >> Right. as an officer. Exactly. >> But that was the thing she was waiting to hear >> to give up her phone. She wasn't going to give up her phone anyways. >> Right. >> [laughter] >> She wanted to Prying a 18-year-old from her phone is damn near like taking away their blood or air. So You you take you take a phone from a kid or the or the iPad or the internet, [laughter] they say they can't live. Yes. Turn that damn internet or Wi-Fi off. They come out the door like, >> [laughter] >> "Oh, I can't make it." And remember our lights was off? Mhm. We made it. Yeah, oh be specific. When the lights went out, we didn't get our lights turned off. Oh yeah, we had a storm. >> No, this YouTube Yeah, you know, yeah. We had a storm. It was like 2 years ago or a year ago. Yeah. >> And our lights went out. Yeah. And man, we made it. We had a we had a little little charger. Like a camp out in the house. Yeah, we was good. Her son >> [laughter] >> "Oh, can I go to the store with you?" He was so bored cuz they they don't know how to make it. We old school. We know how to make it. You know what I'm saying? We probably got to we got to find something to make it with. We going to read books if we got to. >> [laughter] >> But yeah, that's I I feel like cops are so smart. They not going to tell you what what what you want them what you want to hear. They don't use certain things cuz that that'll mess up their investigation. Like for instance, like I be seeing those unalived videos. And the person is telling you they say, "Is that my son? Is that my son?" They say, "Ma'am, just calm down. We get the information soon." It's like they wait to tell you. They don't want to come out and say, "Yeah, your son I'm I'm I'm blunt. Yeah, that was your son. He got shot." Yeah. Cops know, "We give you information. Come on. Let's go sit down and talk." And so, is your son name so-and-so? And when is the last time you seen him? "Can you just tell me if he got unalived or not?" They They They so strategic with these things. Yeah, like that's just that's the way they are. But to the normal police, thank y'all for being normal. >> [laughter] >> And what I want to know though, I want to come back. I want to look her up. This this been 2023. Mhm. So, I know she know something. Now, did she win the case? And was she Did she have something to do with the fire? I want to know that. >> Yeah. That's what I was going to get try and get to. Um I think that they probably have put things together. Mhm. Um I don't know whether she was when they say there was a fire at my house, I don't know whether she was at her own house, like moved out 18, got her own house slash apartment or whatever. Uh-huh. Or I thought it was like a dorm. >> Me, too. And she I don't know why in my vision I was thinking she was at a dorm. I don't know why. That was the police station, but that was just weird that I just thought she was at a dorm or school. Sometimes your mind paints a picture that's not even there. I was just thinking school. She's at school or whatever. So, the the police got her down to the police station. >> that's the police station? Yes. It's That's the normal police We saw it right there, right? I was just Didn't you think that that was she was at a school or >> Yeah. Yeah. I thought it was a dorm. >> [laughter] >> She was at the police station. >> Yeah, she was at the police station. So, um that's why sometimes when you go back and look at things, you get things wrong, like if somebody ask you questions, cuz your brain tries to go with the most logical thing. >> Right. So, now we'll say, "Where was the girl at when I saw her? Um she was at uh a library." She wasn't at a library. She was at a bookstore, but you just saw books. Yep. And you know, you get the things wrong. But, anyway, so because of all of this happening, the way that the police phrased it, they got her down there to take her phone or confiscate her phone, because I believe they think that she has something to do with the fire. So, that's that's another reason why they skirted around or skated around the fact that they were taking her phone. They didn't want to say that. But, I do want to know again, is this was 2023 if whether still ongoing in still 2026 >> Uh-huh. whether or not she won the lawsuit. And the reason why I said I don't know whether I agree with you whether or not she was going to lose is because with the right lawyer they can find just a way any loophole to >> true. say, "Oh, police didn't do that. Oh, you didn't read her rights before you put the handcuff, you know?" So, Yeah, they'll find something. >> Yeah, so that's why I said she may or may not have won her. I want to look up cuz I want to see cuz it she may as they said it's ongoing 2026. Is it still ongoing? Well, I said 2026 because it's right now when we're watching the video, but I don't know when it was released. Yeah, I I want to see did she win it? Or did what she did she have something to do with that fire? Mhm. Yeah, but y'all come to the comments. Let us know what y'all think about this one. Um we'd love to discuss these thing things. For the people that say we talk too much, thank you. >> [laughter] >> We are doing our job. >> Yep. Cuz we're discussing it. >> Yes. Body Cam Vibes. Imagine being a channel named Body Cam Vibes Discussions and you have no discussions. >> [laughter] >> Until next time. Don't get caught slipping. Okay.
